The Question is:
What I am trying to do is transfer a file via FTP from a batch file ... it
appears that our version of VMS does not support copy/ftp so we are trying
to use ftp hostname /username= /password= then the Put command but it
appears to ignore the username an
d password in batch .... it works at the prompt. Can you help us with this?
The Answer is :
The OpenVMS Wizard would encourage an upgrade to OpenVMS V6.2 or later,
as this will provide access to COPY/FTP and similar capabilities you
seek. The OpenVMS Wizard would also encourage an upgrade (as part of
the OpenVMS upgrade or otherwise) to the particular TCP/IP package
installed, as that package is (though nammed and version unspecified)
likely also rather old.
You may well be restricted to using I/O redirection and an input file,
if you must remain on OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2. (This file involves creating
and then invoking a short DCL- or program-created text file to perform
the FTP operation.)
